No News

No real news to relay. Everything is going slow. The contractions are starting to pick up a little. Pain is increasing, they are around about 4-5. We checked about an hour ago to see how things have progressed and we were still at about 2cm. I'll keep things as up to date as possible.

Pain

The contractions have started to get stronger. They are now starting to be uncomfortable. Christina is doing well. The baby will not sit still to save his life. They are having a hard time monitoring him because of it. Everyone is still here, my Mom, Christina's Mom, Sabrina, and Ashley. Things haven't get hectic yet the nurse did say that when things get going everyone has to be out!! Be back in a little while with some more news.

Contractions


Still here in the hospital. Contractions are about 2 - 3 minutes apart. Christina is still not having any problems. The pain is very minimal and I haven't really had to do much. The nurse just upped the pitocin to try to intensify the contractions and speed this process along I will let everyone know if anything changes!!!

TODAY IS IT

We are in the hospital. It has been a long haul to get here but we are finally here. This morning at about 5:30 Christina's water broke, so we thought. We came to the hospital got admitted and thought we were good. The doctor came in and checked her and was unable to find amniotic fluid so she was discharged and we went home. The doctor thought that she "wee'd" on herself.

I decided to go to work and Christina was going to take a nap and just hang around the house. She was very discouraged with the whole situation. She was going to lay down and it happened again she felt another gush. She came to pick me up at work and we went back to the doctor. They were able to find fluid and we were sent back to the hospital!!!!!!!

Now we are on pitocin to help strengthen the contractions and she is sitting on the birthing ball. She is pretty comfortable and doing pretty well. I will try to keep things as up to date as possible. If things don't really make sense its because I'm super tired and I have a bunch of people distracting me.

TRUE or FALSE

Well boys and girls we don't know what is going on. We were rolling right along this morning, contractions were about 5 to 6 minutes apart while we were walking. We can home and things just kinda stopped. We went for another walk and nothing!! So, we don't know what to do. I'll keep things posted if anything changes.

Getting Close

Here we go boys and girls. We have been having contractions for two days now. They are getting strong this morning. I hope that today is the day. We have not gone to the hospital yet, that will happen when the contractions are 5 minutes apart. Christina's mom and two sisters are here already. They came in last night. They are all super excited. I will not be going to work today so that we can try and walk this baby out. I will keep posting to keep things up to date. Keep your fingers crossed!!!!!!!!

CONTRACTIONS

Well, we think Luke is coming soon. Christina has started having contractions. We went for a long walk last night and she started having what she thought was contractions. They continued through the night though not very frequent or regular. They have continued this morning. She decided to go into work this morning and see how long she could last. So....maybe tonight we will be going to the hospital but I really have no idea. I will keep posting today to let everyone know whats going on. We will also try to give everyone a call when we head to the hospital. Keep the blog up tonight and keep your phone close. Hopefully, we will have a new addition to the family tonight!!!!!!!
